Gerard Trudeau wins top award at Campbell’s Bay races: Gerard Trudeau returned to the Third Annual Hub Snowmobile Races and for him and the Hub Snowmobile Club it was the most successful and prosperous to date.

Rarely has there been seen the action and excitement that Trudeau and Bob Beaudoin generated for the 1,300 plus fans who came out to support the event.

The quality of the racing was enhanced by the efforts of local drivers Willie Dods of Wyman and Jim Stewart of Bryson.

The complete program of 32 races was completed in a record time of 3 hours and 5 minutes and was adjourned to the Royal Canadian Legion in Campbell’s Bay for prize money and trophy presentations.
CSRO decides on two Catholic high schools in Pontiac County: The CSRO (Commission Scholarie Regional de l’Outaouais) made several decisions at its Monday night meeting of importance, perhaps to Pontiac County.
As reported by Dick Bowie, Member for Pontiac, they have decided that the English speaking Roman Catholic students of this county would be best served by two new high schools instead of one. The locations are to be Chapeau and Campbell’s Bay.

The decision came as a result of the reports made by the Department of Education after a study made by Mr. McCullough last year.

The new school in Chapeau will accommodate 250 students and the one at Campbell’s Bay will take 500.
